Kylie May is 3! (and a Layla update)

We had a perfect birthday weekend. Bryan was home Saturday & Sunday, so that was a treat! All three of us made snacks for the party. Bryan & I couldn't wait to give Kylie her present, so we did that too. She loves it (pink train set).

We had Kylie's party at Kidz Town in Howard. A few close friends and family came for munchies and cupcakes. I highly recommend having a party there! It was so nice to let the kids run around and play. We actually had to corral them for cupcakes & gifts! Thanks to everyone who came & gave Kylie some awesome toys & clothes.

Our 29 week ultrasound appointment for Layla Faith was yesterday. She was in a really weird position so the actual ultrasound was a little painful. I think it's just getting harder to lay on my back for so long. We didn't really get to see her because of her position. The tech just got most of the measurements she needed, so it was quick.

Then we had our meeting with the Dr. We've known the diagnosis for 11 weeks and at each appointment we have less & less questions. I think we know 'everything' there is to know. He said that my fluid is still 'within normal limits'. That typically increases at 32-34 weeks. She's grown a little in the past three weeks. She was 14 oz and is now one and a half pounds. Our Dr. seemed very interested in how we are doing, not as focussed on Layla, since not much has changed. He wasn't as 'doctory', which was kind of nice.

We signed some paperwork for the geneticist & the study that they'll be doing after Layla is born. Then we met with the hospital's social worker. She knows all there is to know about this situation. We found out that there are a couple local funeral homes that provide their services to families with children for free. The hospital also has their own photographer for after Layla is born. They also provide us with different keepsakes, like a baby ring necklace & footprints, etc. It was nice to know that they will take care of everything for us, so there's not much for us to think about.

Well, here are a couple pics from the weekend.
